Lalisa Manoban
The shock wasn't bearable for a tired soul like me.
I had spent all this time with a hallucination. She was ostentatious, pulling me right towards her flaming body. Everytime I crossed paths with her, she mercilessly pulled my heartstrings.
"Lisa? Will you please say something?" Rosé's hands found their way up to my shoulders, gently tugging at the fabric. Her voice was full of concern as she watched me get lost in my own daze.
I shook my head, "You've got no p-proof," my eyes were welled with tears by now.
Soon enough, I felt a tired sigh escape Bobby's mouth. "I do, actually."
I felt my heart break into smaller and smaller pieces at his statements. His words were so fucking heartless.
Rosé stood by my side, Jisoo quietly observing everything taking place. Bobby stood up and walked towards me, his hands digging the pockets of his jeans. He took his phone out, a few clicks here, a few clicks there, finally, the screen was in front of my face.
It was his gallery, a 'play' button pointing to the right was displayed largely in the middle of the screen. I looked up at him, tilting my head.
"Play it."
I absentmindedly obeyed his demand, my fingers hesitating to tap the screen. This video was something I had no idea about, what took place in it. But, a taunting voice inside my head told me it was up to nothing providing relief.
Finally, my index finger touched the screen, it felt cold under my touch.
The video started and my eyes widened.
I slapped a hand over my mouth just as the tears started streaming down my face. My voice was lost in my throat as my teary eyes examined everything on the small screen.
"This was when I recorded Jisoo's words, while Jennie was comforting her. She was right next to her on the pavement outside the club. It was dark, hard to find out what was going on at that moment, but today when I was doing the research, I took out my phone and flipped through my gallery to find this video," he came to an abrupt stop.
"She's not in the video, Lisa."
He was unfortunately correct, Jisoo seemed like she was talking to herself in the video. Jennie was nowhere, none of her beauty was present, her voice wasn't heard in a single second of the entire video. She was absent from the video.
"It's time to accept that she's not becoming human any time soon now. Live with her just the way she is or else leave her-"
"I'm not fucking leaving her," I murmured.
I stood up, Jisoo had already left the room. Rosé took a step back, withdrawing her hands.
I faced Bobby, he smiled, "I knew you would handle this very well, now go and tell Jennie that you won't be leaving her no matter how she is." He winked.
I nodded and made my way back to the room Jennie was present in. Just when I thought everything was going back to normal, life would stop testing my patience, it was all once again flipped completely over.
With every step I took forward, I felt a sting tug my heart. It felt like my heart was in a state of jumping out of my chest any time now.
She didn't become human after all. She was only seen by people who truly loved her. Doesn't matter if she's a hallucination or a human, she's mine. I had taken a promise to protect her vulnerable side and not even let a single blade reach her fragile skin.
She's too perfect, innocent and pure to go through such pain. I would've buried my feelings for her along time ago if I knew she would be pulled through a twisted road of pain with no possibility of an end because of me. I fucked up big time.
Finally, I was in front of the door. My breaths were uneven, my chest moved up and down signalling my nervousness.
My hands curled up in a fist as I raised it, knocking three times on the door.
No answer.
I knocked again, this time with force and power. I frowned, why was she not opening it?
"Jennie-"
The door swung open, light arms circling around my neck, pulling me towards the person with great force.
Jennie literally threw herself on me, without any hesitations. This felt right, completely right. Her face was resting on my shoulder, I heard low sniffs right next to my ear.
"P-please don't leave m-me, I p-promise to try and adjust here. Please, I'm begging you. I'm not human but I've got feelings and I'm even capable of being heart broken, Lisa. I might not be perfect-"
Letting go off her, I placed my fingers on her lips, shushing her.
I shook my head, "Which idiot said I'm leaving you?"
In that moment, I could swear that I sensed Jennie screaming internally.
She gasped, throwing herself on me once again, "Thank you Thank you Thank you! Oh my God I love you!"
My hands slid around her waist, pulling her small frame towards me. There was a flame igniting inside my tempted body at our touch.
This hug was a promise to our future together, a bright one. We had decided to be my each others' side, sticking together through thick and thin. No strength could separate us, not even Jennie not being real.
"I love you too," I whispered.
Hello guys!
I know I'm great buhahahaha. Love is love, dead or alive.
I hope I cleared all the confusions though cause some people were having a hard time figuring out what tf was going on.
Jennie is still dead, she's a hallucination for the people that truly loved her. Like her boyfriend, Lisa etc.
And uhm....the next chapter will be the....EPILOGUE!
PLS DON'T KILL ME OKAY
THEY PROMISED TO STAY TOGETHER NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS AND IT'S TIME FOR THE MF EPILOGUE.
Love you all, take care 💕
